Evolv - Zenist - Climbing shoes

Aggressive climbing shoes for training and competitions

If you really want to get down to business when climbing and bouldering, then you need high-performance climbing shoes. The Zenist from Evolv is just what you need. Specially designed for competition and training, the shoes offer maximum performance and fit like a glove.

The main reason for this is the shape and the soft upper material. It’s able to adapt perfectly to your foot shape without affecting the form of the shoes. These shoes also have a practical hook-and-loop fastener for extra support. This makes them the ideal compromise between slip-on shoes and shoes with multiple hook-and-loop fasteners.

Flexible sole with an aggressive downturn

The sole has been designed to get the most out of the shoes. The aggressive downturn makes it very precise and allows you to stand on the smallest ledges and footholds. The sole is also very flexible and provides excellent feedback from the wall. In addition, the shoes have a special rubber coating on both the toe and the heel. This also makes it easy to accurately adjust the toe and foot hooks.

The features at a glance:

• Designed for training and competition
• Synthetic upper adapts well to the shape of your foot
• Precise sole with an aggressive downturn for the best grip on small footholds

Note: to help you find your size, Evolv has categorised the fit into three groups based on your objectives: Max Performance, Performance and Comfort.

• Max Performance: this is your street shoe size. This fit is designed for the best possible performance, perfect for pushing your limits. You will need to break in the shoes.
• Performance Fit: if you prefer a snug fit that is comfortable to wear from the start, add half a size to your street shoe.
• Comfort Fit: if you prefer a comfortable fit for multi-pitch climbing or if you're a beginner, then add 1 to 1.5 sizes to your street shoe.
